Was a lovely site for tent camping. The grass was lovely to walk on and my daughter and dog had a lovely time playing on it. The sites were quite close together but were still nice and had a fire pit for each site. Loved all the activities through the day, will definitely be back!

We absolutely loved our stay in the orchard. Fabulous grassy flat ground perfect for your tent. The toilets were a short walk away. Cafe on site was great for a coffee the following morning. Each site has its own campfire and you can purchase some firewood for an extra cost. 10/10 would recommend, our highlight was strolling through the orchards and picking some fresh produce to take home with us!!

We all enjoyed staying at Jaime and Nathan’s campsite! We had plenty of privacy, a great experience picking a variety of fruits, and they were super tasty! The children also loved feeding animals and picking fruits 🥰. We highly recommend it to everyone! The only downsides were that the toilets were quite far, and the washing and shower areas were a bit dirty, but apart from that, we were all very happy with our stay! ☺️

We recently had the pleasure of camping at the Orchard and it was everything we hoped for expect an encounter with the python. Jamie and Nathan were reachable quickly and very informative which gave most of us a piece of mind. We discovered an uninvited neighbour “a diamond python” who stayed on the same spot until we had checked out. We were offered an alternative site but we chose to stay on the same site. Our kids loved picking the apples and eating them fresh from the trees. Moreover, they enjoyed feeding the animals- alpacas, goats, Guinea pig and pigs. The tractor ride was a world of fun for us. We will certainly be coming again and will be recommending to all our friends.

We camped in the orchard, very pretty spot, nice and quiet as we were the only campers in that area. Steve the host was friendly and helpful.
Nice grounds for a walk and we were impressed with the waterfall. Was an enjoyable walk with the kids, an easy 20min round trip. The water was flowing from recent rain and was definitely worth the walk.
Amenities were new and clean.

Absolutely fantastic! Our camp stay was so enjoyable, the place is nice and flat for the tent, safe environment and the orchard is beautiful! Being able to pick and eat the fruit, see and feed the animals and have a tractor ride was so much added fun! The staff at the cafe were lovely too.
The toilets were a little drive down the lane, would be nice if there was something closer at nighttime but can’t complain, overall it was great! Thankyou!!

Where to go
Popran National Park
A short drive from Glenworth Valley, the Popran National Park is a great day-trip destination for campers in the area as there are no campsites within the park itself. Visitors can hike, mountain bike, kayak, fish, ride horses, and spot birds and animals. The park also protects a number of Aboriginal sites and there’s a picnic area. Most roads to the park require a four-wheel-drive vehicle.
Brisbane Water National Park
Just southeast of Glenworth Valley, the Brisbane Water National Park offers walks, cycling, and fishing, and has some ancient Aboriginal rock art sites. There’s a small, basic bush tent site within the park or visitors can stay at Glenworth Valley or nearby coastal campsites at Umina or Gosford and make day trips into the park. Road access into this park does not require a four-wheel-drive vehicle so this is a good option for casual visits.
Dharug National Park
West of Glenworth Valley, on the other side of Mangrove Creek (a tributary of the Hawkesbury River), the large Dharug National Park contains the UNESCO-listed Old Great North Road hike. There are also other hiking and cycling routes and two campsites. The Ten Mile Hollow Campground is small and free to stay at (although bookings are required), while the Mill Creek Campground is larger and has more facilities, and fees apply.
When to go
Spring and autumn are the best times to visit the Glenworth Valley area for hiking, biking, kayaking, and horse-riding adventures. The weather is most comfortable then. Summers are hot and the risk from bushfires is high, but this is a good season if you want to visit the nearby beaches of the Central Coast. Winters are mild but often wet, and glamping or staying in a cabin or cottage would be most comfortable.
